SAFETY Operator Safety WARNING POTENTIAL HAZARD Operating the ATV through deep or fast-flowing water. WHAT CAN HAPPEN Tires may float, causing loss of traction and loss of control, which could lead to an accident or overturn. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD Avoid operating the ATV through deep or fast-flowing water. If it's unavoidable to enter water that exceeds the recommended maximum depth (see page 64), travel slowly, balance your weight carefully, avoid sudden movements, and maintain a slow and steady forward motion. Do not make sudden turns or stops, and do not make sudden throttle changes. Wet brakes may have reduced stopping ability. Always test the brakes after leaving water. If necessary, apply them several times to let friction dry out the pads. WARNING POTENTIAL HAZARD Improperly operating in reverse. WHAT CAN HAPPEN The ATV could collide with an obstacle or person, resulting in severe injury. HOW TO AVOID THE HAZARD Before shifting into reverse gear, always check for obstacles or people behind the ATV. When it's safe to proceed, back slowly. 32
